As many of you have noticed and are hopefully trying out, we have placed our HD maps into Public Testing. You should definitely join the 1.0 Beta!

In other exciting map news, we are commencing internal tests of two variants of the Polish map, currently code-named "Studzianki". These prototypes don't look as slick as the maps in CT because they are still in the conceptual stages, but rest assured the final product will.

The first prototype was adjusted following the previous round of testing. We added new spots lending cover from artillery fire, and made several tweaks allowing for more intense action. The gameplay for heavies should get more comfortable, and other classes should still have great opportunities for spotting-based play. We’ll see if these adjustments work out.

The second Studzianki prototype is based on an earlier version of the map, but has lots of new nice positions for both sides and clearly defined attack directions for all classes. At the same time the map stays open so the gameplay should be dynamic.

I like aspects of both. More inclined with number two being it isn't as symmetrical. A revamp of North West would be awesome, as well as a Pacific Island map; Iwo Jima, Luzon. Seelow heights (outskirts of Berlin), Fulda gap, would peek my interest as well.
